|
| 1/4 |
|
cup firmly packed brown sugar
|
| 1 |
|
tablespoon LAND O LAKES® Butter
|
| 1 |
|
medium (2 cups) tart apple, sliced 1/8-inch

| 1/4 |

(7-inch) low fat whole wheat tortillas, warmed

| 4 |
|
(3/4-ounce) slices Alpine Lace® Deli Reduced Fat Cheddar or American Cheese, cut in half diagaonally |
Combine brown sugar and butter in 10-inch skillet. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until bubbly (2 to 3 minutes). Add apple slices; continue cooking until slices are tender (5 to 8 minutes). Stir in dried cranberries. Remove from heat.
Heat 10-inch skillet or electric griddle over medium heat. Spray
1 side of each tortilla with no-stick cooking spray. With sprayed-side down, evenly place 1/4 apple mixture onto each tortilla; top with 2
cheese halves. Fold tortillas in half over mixture; place 2 quesadillas into skillet. Cook, turning once, until golden brown (3 to 5 minutes). (If necessary, wipe out skillet with paper towels.) Repeat with remaining quesadillas.
TIP:
For a great topping idea, mix 1/2 cup low fat plain yogurt with 2 teaspoons honey and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Top quesadillas with a dollop of yogurt mixture.
